[01:19.94] When it all falls apart I remember what he said
[01:22.96] It's not about the cheddar, creme, fame, skill or bread
[01:25.42] Its's carbon truth in beauty, learning to respect
[01:28.71] Learning how to love, put your selfishness in check

[02:02.02] Ain't feelin' this, I'm killing shit, please don't continue
[02:03.96] To hate, It's safe to say I'm one of the hottest rapping
[02:06.45] Hotter than wasabi dressing, hot like the Mojave Desert
[02:08.64] I fuck your bitch, my homie got the sloppy seconds
[02:11.14] I got her legs in the air kickin' like she taking body lessons
[02:13.55] Bitch you got a second? Nah bitch, I'm kinda busy
[02:16.07] My grind is grizzly, no time this instant
[02:17.83] Key to everything, impeccably my timing is so sublime
[02:21.36] You've heard this slow shit now back to the double time
[02:23.15] I was jumping on the microphone when I was young and the skippers got kicked but
[02:25.53] I was losing my mind under the pressure of a half on the back of the stiff dope

[02:45.75] What is Hip-Hop? It's the sound that a bunny makes
[02:49.36] Today's Hip-Hop might leave a funny taste
[02:52.06] Flavor that you savor is a little artificial
[02:53.73] Pinky-wink twinkies got no filling in the middle
[02:56.55] Keep it simple. Follow the Hip-Hop commandments
[02:59.12] Keep it real. Represent like our fucking dads' did
[03:01.65] Our elders, our betters, the ones who did it first
[03:03.86] Pioneers are outta here, stars about to burst
[03:05.73] It's up to the descendants and I ain't talking dirty sheets
[03:08.35] I am what I am even though they want to murder me
[03:10.75] They just pissed because I'm true to the art form
[03:13.35] Make a loud sound like a fucking car horn
[03:15.73] True to my rhymes cause that shit pays off
[03:17.94] I'm my own boss, can't be laid off
